Leeds United star Rodrigo named in Graeme Souness' Team of the Week

Graeme Souness has named Leeds United forward Rodrigo in his Premier League Team of the Week. The Spaniard scored both of the Whites' goals in their 2-2 draw at Southampton.

Rodrigo has three Premier League goals in two matches this season, and only needs four more goals to beat last term's tally. He netted the equalising goal against Wolves in Leeds' opening day win at Elland Road, and followed that up with a brace at St Mary's.

The 31-year-old gave the Whites the lead just seconds after the half-time interval, meeting a whipped Jack Harrison cross at the near post, before doubling his side's lead on the hour mark when he was on hand to nod home Pascal Struijk's flick-on from a corner. Rodrigo headed the ball into the back of the net right on the goal line, but he was being played onside by Kyle Walker-Peters.
